- Version 1:
- Further in Summer than the Birds -
- Pathetic from the Grass -
- A Minor Nation celebrates
- It's unobtrusive Mass -
- No Ordinance be seen -
- So gradual the Grace
- A pensive Custom it becomes
- Enlarging Loneliness -
- 'Tis Audiblest, at Dusk -
- When Day's attempt is done -
- And Nature nothing waits to do
- But terminate in Tune -
- Nor difference it knows
- Of Cadence, or of Pause -
- But simultaneous as Same -
- The Service emphacize -
- Nor know I when it cease -
- At Candles, it is here -
- When Sunrise is - that it is not -
- Than this, I know no more -
- The Earth has many keys -
- Where Melody is not
- Is the Unknown Peninsula -
- Beauty - is Nature's Fact -
- But Witness for Her Land -
- And Witness for Her Sea -
- The Cricket is Her utmost
- Of Elegy, to Me -

- Antiquer felt at Noon
- When August is burning low
- Arise this spectral Canticle
- Repose to typify

- No Furrow on the Glow
- Yet a Druidic - Difference
- Enhances Nature now
